6 Reasons why Wilcon Depot and Pampanga are a perfect fit
WILCON OPENS ITS 100TH STORE IN LUBAO, PAMPANGA:

While most people are all agog with holiday merry making at every turn, Wilcon Depot is not yet done with its work for the year.

Friday, December 13, 2024, may yet be one of the most auspicious days in the history of the company. On this day, fortune smiled on each one of its stakeholders—from company executives to the ever-solicitous staff to its fiercely loyal client base.

That's because Wilcon made history by launching its 100th store right in the heart of Lubao, Pampanga. And it is not a simple hole-in-the-wall affair, but a humongous space of over 7,000 square meters replete with all the materials that builders need and can imagine.

Wilcon Depot Lubao reflects all things that are in sync between the company and this illustrious province.

Let's see what the province and the company have in common that make them a perfect fit.

1. The people of Pampanga and Wilcon Depot are hard-working, competitive and always aim to be the best in their field. Think Chef Sau del Rosario, 5th Chief Justice Jose Abad Santos, beauty titlist Michelle Dee, former Philippine presidents Diosdado Macapagal and Gloria Arroyo, or even the recently elected Cardinal Pablo Virgilio David.

Wilcon Depot mirrors the same leadership and trailblazing characteristics.

Kapampangans continue to shine. The company continues to search for the best products to assist the Filipino builder in their evolving needs.

2. Kapampangans and Wilcon are fierce and passionate. They are not docile or timid about crowing on who's the best. Wilcon Depot is just as passionate about giving due recognition when it is deserved. It has been lauded repeatedly and has reaped recognition locally and globally. Yet, the company remains gracious in its success and never loses its focus on improving itself and its employees to give the best service possible to its clients.
